Most of the girls in Brianna's school are jealous of her because not only is she beautiful and has a good figure but she is also intelligent and also talented so she is liked by all her teachers and most handsome and popular boys in the school are head over heels for her.

It was 7:50 when Amanda finally decided to come downstairs for breakfast and then head to school she wore a purple knee length fitting dress that was a bit revealing but she looks beautiful in that dress with her make on on the other side Brianna wore a black skirt that ended just above her knees with a well fitted top with no make on her hair was tied into a bun she has no make up on but Amanda couldn't outshine her she made her gritted her teeth in anger but appeared to be timid and innocent on the surface, Brianna was surprised when she learnt her father will be dropping them off to school today but didn't say anything, she kept her thoughts to herself.

Brianna was very good at hiding her emotions and seems to be too matured for her age she knew all that was happening between her parents but decides to keep it to herself, after breakfast her father drove the two of them to school throughout the journey to school Brianna was uncomfortable because of the exchange between her father and Amanda the only occasion her father spoke to her was for her to take care of her cousin she found it funny because her father didn't seem to care about her but she got used to do she didn't mind her only reply " ok".

Jerry seems surprise about her daughter flat respond he seems to notice his daughter's distant attitude towards him as the days goes by , he was angry because his daughter no longer rely on him like he used to be even his wife seems to be a little distant and cold towards sometimes he feels like his wife knows the secret he has been keeping from her for fifteen years now and he knew the secret he is keeping is not yet in the open he loves his wife and daughter very much but the only reason why he brought Amanda and her daughter back was the guilt he felt for not being there for them you may not know but Amanda was her daughter " yes his own daughter whom he had with Zoe fifteen years ago".

Jerry came back to his sense when he heard his daughter Brianna telling him they have arrived.

He lifts his head and was the school gate which reads " welcome to Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis High school" then entered the school gate packed the car and wish his two daughters good luck and told them to have a good day at school Brianna didn't give a reply just got down and started heading to class this made Jerry think if the relationship between him and his princess will return to how it was , Amanda gave a sweet reply and ask Jerry if she should talk to Brianna but deep down she was happy and the drift between the father and daughter Jerry decides against it and drove off to work in a disturbed mood.
